In addition, Kereta Api Indonesia (KAI) is preparing regular train promo packages for travel from Monday to Thursday on all routes with discounts of 10-20 percent to support the Proud of Tourism movement in Indonesia.
"The days were chosen because the occupancy rate of trains is relatively low," the Minister informed.
Meanwhile, Minister Uno admitted that airplane ticket prices are still high and remain a big challenge in boosting tourism in Indonesia.
The Minister said that the solution to overcome this problem is by increasing the number of flights and aircraft in Indonesia.
"We ask for support for air transportation because we are heavily complained about ticket prices. However, this is not only happening in Indonesia, but worldwide,"
The government targets domestic tourist trips to reach 1.25-1.5 billion trips in 2024. Meanwhile, the turnover in the tourism sector is targeted to reach IDR3,000 trillion and transactions in the creative economy products amount to IDR1.187 billion.
